They called saying they worked for an energy firm, but I told them they were trying to scam me and then just ended the call.

The call came through on VOIP but when I tried to answer, the scammer never bothered to pick up. Eventually, the auto-dialler just ended the call on its own.

Some bloke called Ben rang up about some government insulation thing. I just told him to sod off and find a real job, then I hung up straight away.

Somebody called saying they were from a government agency and wanted to book a loft insulation check because apparently I'd never had one done since the insulation went in. When I asked how they got my contact details, they just ended the call. I rang their number back and a recorded message said they were actually a solar panel sales company - can't trust what they’re saying at all!

Got a call from some bloke called "Peter" claiming he’s an energy advisor for my neighbourhood. Honestly, this is at least the tenth one I've had this week! Seems like there's a whole army of them. They’ve got nothing better to do than keep ringing. Total scam artists, all of them. Blocked the number straight away but I’m sure they’ll just ring from somewhere else next time. Pure scam. Don’t trust ’em!

I just posted a comment but thought I’d add more... He had a very English accent, which seemed odd for someone calling from Ireland. He said his name was Ben. When I told him what he was doing was against the law, he kept on talking. I asked if he heard me and repeated it, then he just hung up.

Some bloke named Ben rang me claiming he worked for a government insulation scheme, but I knew straight away that’s rubbish. He told me the insulation in our loft was dodgy and had to be swapped out, which is impossible since we don’t even have a loft. Even though we’re on the TPS list, these annoying calls keep coming non stop!

Got a call from a number I didn’t know so I let it ring out to voicemail. As soon as it went to voicemail, the caller hung up straight away - classic sign of a scam. They’re definitely ignoring TPS regulations even though I’m signed up. Sorted it by blocking the number through BT 1572.

Was in the middle of making a cuppa so didn’t pick up. Didn’t leave any voicemail either. If they ring back again, I’ll just block the number. I’ve been on the TPS list for yonks but they still keep ringing!

Someone rang me saying they were from “Green Energy” and started asking about saving money by putting solar panels on my roof. Weird thing is, I’ve had the exact same chat from different phone numbers, mostly in the mornings or around dinner time. I told them to take me off their call list since I don’t have a roof at all - I stay in an apartment! But they just keep ringing anyway... it’s super frustrating!

This number rang me twice now. At first, I thought it was one of those Smart Meter scams cause he started with that same spiel. When he said, "we won't share your info with anybody else," I answered back quite bluntly saying I wasn't bothered. Then he gave out some other team member’s number before cutting off the call abruptly. I didn’t waste any time and blocked the number straight away. Funny thing is, I had already blocked them not long ago when they called but didn’t leave a message about two days earlier.

Got a call from someone claiming to be an energy consultant for the area, saying our loft insulation doesn’t meet the latest requirements. I told him straight up that calling me out of the blue like that was against the law since I’m registered with the TPS, and he was definitely NOT a government official like he tried to make out. I guess that bluff rattled him because the phone just went dead before he could reply. Seriously, when will the TPS actually start taking action against these people?

They keep ringing my phone loads throughout the day. Most of the time, no-one picks up, but a few times I caught a bloke on the line. He never really said who he was, just went on and on about some government-approved insulation stuff... it's all a bit dodgy if you ask me.

They've been calling me a bunch lately, but I’m hardly picking up on the landline anymore since I mostly use my mobile now. This afternoon they kept ringing for more than two minutes - that’s a big warning sign in my book. I looked the number up online and it looks like it’s probably a scam. The calls seem to be coming from Northern Ireland, but I’ve got no links there at all, neither for work nor personal reasons.
